"We've run into some cash flow problems," Malcolm said in an urgent tone."Huh? How could that be? Hadn't the Toussaints set aside the necessary funds for this project in advance?"It shouldn't affect the funds for this project even if the company is in trouble," Natasha said confusedly."We have prepared the cash flow in advance. Strangely, there has been a very suspicious interruption in our cash flow. Someone is clearly targeting the Toussaints," Malcolm speculated boldly."Targeting the Toussaints?"Ryan looked at Natasha solemnly with a frown on his face. He wanted to know what Malcolm had said that made her so concerned.After a moment's thought, Natasha responded, "If that's the case, then someone must have known that the Toussaints had prepared the cash flow and is aware of the Tranquilix project."But our project is so closely held, who would know that the Toussaints were working with me on the Tranquilix project?""That's the weird part," Malcolm said gravely."The o

"Regal Repast?" Natasha repeated what Malcolm said. Given the current situation, it was indeed necessary to discuss possible solutions with the Toussaints.Malcolm couldn't help but feel anxious as Natasha remained silent on the other end of the line."Professor, things are pressing. I had no other choice but to call you."The Graysons are well connected to several banks. Mr. Grayson's been in direct contact with the presidents of those banks this time, and they've frozen all of our funds."From the moment Natasha mentioned Joshua's involvement, Malcolm quickly understood the incident.He remembered that everyone seemed distraught that day when he arrived at EngenCorp Group. The secretary reluctantly told him about EngenCorp Group's cash flow problem only after he pressed her.Subsequently, major banks in Oceanville called the Toussaints. They claimed that problems at the banks were affecting the operation of their funds.It was clear that this was no coincidence at all. Joshua'

Not long after he started eating, Ryan put his utensils down.He was still feeling down, and his heart was beating fast as if he was in crisis.He couldn't shake off his discomfort. Didn't Natasha tell Malcolm to contact him directly? Why did he still call Natasha directly as if Ryan didn't exist?Ryan was a little frustrated. He picked up the jug of water to pour himself a glass. Seeing that Natasha's glass was empty too, he took her cup and filled it.Around two hours later, Ryan drove them away after their meal.After thinking about it, Natasha decided to tell Ryan about what Malcolm had said. After all, she was only in charge of the project on paper. Ryan was the main force behind it."Joshua made a move against the Toussaint family.""What?" Ryan was stunned to hear Natasha suddenly say that.He quickly returned to his senses and asked, "So, the Toussaints' financial supply chain is disrupted because of Joshua?""Yes, so I'm going to discuss how to solve this with the Tou

"No, it's fine. It's what I ought to do."Although Gina was happy, she didn't let it show on her face. Instead, she put on an act, as if she were devoted to serving Natalie wholeheartedly, without seeking any reward.She had to pretend to refuse her offer at least a little."Well, here's what I'm going to do. I'll give you a raise next month. You've been by my side taking care of me, and you've always been working so hard. You deserve it," Natalie said as she took a sip of her chicken noodle soup.After all, increasing Gina's salary would just mean cutting back on a few clothing purchases."Well, in that case, thank you, Ms. Lovelace," Gina said, not refusing this time. Her gratitude was written on her face."I also made you your favorite chocolate truffle cake. Please have some." Gina headed to the kitchen to bring out a delicate chocolate truffle cake.Natalie took the plate from her, closing her eyes as she ate. She planned to talk to Joshua about the matter after finishing t

"No, I'm not going up anymore. Carry on with your work." Natalie waved him away, indicating for Terry to go upstairs.She returned to the car.What on earth was Joshua so busy with? Was he too busy to pay her any attention?Could an authorization process really keep Joshua occupied for so long? Wasn't it just an authorization? Couldn't Radiance get someone else to handle it directly?She didn't think this matter would hurt Grayson Corp in any way.Grayson Corp had been doing so well over the years. There was no need to worry about such a minor authorization. Joshua was just making a big deal out of nothing.He had cast her aside because of such a small matter.She was a little angry. Unable to get over it, she took out her phone and dialed Joshua's number, ready to ask him about it.The call connected."Hello?" Joshua answered in his deep voice. Although it was a single word, it was still intimidating.Natalie immediately hesitated.The emotions that had brewed up in her d

When Malcolm walked into Gwen Restaurant, a nearby waiter immediately welcomed him."Hello, sir. Could you please show your membership card?"EngenCorp Group had a venue exclusively used to receive guests—Regal Repast. Hence, Malcolm didn't frequent Gwen Restaurant, and the waiters there didn't recognize him."Sure." Nodding, he took out his phone to show the membership card to the waiter. It was something he had obtained at the last minute the previous night.His membership card was gold in color. Although it wasn't the highest membership level at Gwen Restaurant, he was still a distinguished guest.After the waiter checked the card, he lowered his head humbly. "Good evening, Mr. Toussaint. Please head this way."Malcolm put his phone back in his pocket and followed the waiter to the elegantly decorated front desk. Three receptionists were standing in front of the front desk, and all of them were dolled up and looked rather attractive.Meanwhile, Natalie had long been standing

"Let's not beat around the bush, shall we?" Malcolm said. As EngenCorp was significantly impacted, he intended to get straight to the point."Alright, I've brought the contract we signed previously," Natasha said, taking out the contract from her bag and placing it on the table.She flipped to the fourth page. "Given the current situation, it's very likely that the fourth item here, which is the expected funding, may not be feasible.""Yes." Malcolm sighed helplessly. "I never expected Joshua to directly attack the Toussaint family, and so ruthlessly on top of that. By doing so, he's basically burning bridges with EngenCorp."Natasha remained expressionless. "Joshua has always been like this. Have you tried contacting him? Did you ask him if there's a chance we could talk this out?"She knew that given Joshua's character, there was no turning back once he made a decision. Asking Joshua would probably be futile. Nonetheless, she still wanted to try."I didn't ask him. After EngenC

Natasha snorted. "Seducing men? I'm seducing men everywhere I go?""I'm standing right here, and you still want to deny it?" Joshua clenched his fists tighter."Deny it?" Natasha found it amusing, and a faint smile played on her lips. "That's completely unfounded, but since you're so sure, does it really matter whether I deny it or not?"Natasha knew that whatever she said, Joshua wouldn't believe her.Bewildered, Malcolm sat there, unable to recover for a while.Why was Joshua so angry? What did they mean when they said she was seducing Malcolm? Natasha was also wearing an expression he had never seen before.The two obviously had something going on between them that Malcolm didn't know about.The situation confused him. Then, his eyes landed on the woman standing next to Joshua, only to see that she was smiling.Malcolm's intuition told him that she was taking pleasure in their predicament.In response to Natasha's sarcasm, Joshua stared at Natasha with his dark eyes."You
